Chapter 122: Copper Stone

"King Kong is not bad, it is divided into 12 ......styles, such as Zen style, dry tree roots, Haidilao Moon, Arhat raising the tripod, King Kong angry eyes, holding the moon in his arms, cranes meeting with wings, heaven and earth meeting, overlord opening the bow, the great sage kicking the furnace, closing the palms to collect the gong, and playing all over the body."

Next, Ye Xing told Ye Dong the specific cultivation method of the Vajra Incorruptible Divine Skill and gave him guidance.

"This is not only the method of cultivation, but also the method of actual combat. ”

Ye Dong kept what he said in mind one by one, and then cultivated according to Ye Xing's guidance and his own understanding.

......

In this way, Ye Dong practiced the Vajra Immortal Skill in Hexi in the morning, and then rushed to Lingshan at noon.

Because, he is going to implement a plan.

The plan was to sell the copper mines in Lingshan to make a big profit, and then build a magnificent house in the Wolf Banner Division.

Even the scale and structure of the house, as well as the scene layout, Ye Dong has thought about it.

It is majestic and fresh and elegant at the same time.

Even the Xuanyuan family and the Su family will be overshadowed.

At this moment, Ye Dong came to Lingshan again.

He decided to take a small part of the copper ore first, to understand the market, and then find a merchant with a generous bid and sell it in large quantities.

In this way, not only does it save time, but it also maximizes profits.

The first place Ye Dong went to was, of course, Bronze Town.

This place is called Bronze Town, because of the copper ware produced here.

Where copper artifacts are produced, there is of course a great demand for copper ore.

And this time, Ye Dong remade a mask to wear on his face as before.

Moreover, he also put on a wide cloak and wrapped himself tightly.

That mask was exactly the same as the one on Wu Wu's face, maybe it was to commemorate Wu Wu.

Bronze Town.

Ye Dong walked to the front of one of the largest copper shops, and the boss was a shirtless, muscular man.

I saw him sweating like rain at the moment, pulling the bellows with one hand, and raising the sledgehammer in his hand with the other hand to smash the copper sword on the board.

When Ye Dong saw it, he knew that this boss was not simple, because not every coppersmith could cast a bronze sword.

The casting process of bronze swords is extremely complex.

The first step is to mold and shape the basic shape of the bronze sword out of clay. The outline of the bronze sword ornament is drawn on the clay mold, the recessed part is carved directly from the clay mold, and the raised part is made separately and attached to the surface of the clay mold.

The second step is to turn the model, with the fine clay that is evenly blended in advance and tightly pressed on the surface of the clay mold, and the shape and decoration of the clay mold are printed on the clay sheet after patting.

The third step is to fit the fan, the turned clay pieces are divided into several pieces, and after being removed, they are fired into pottery, which is hard and not easy to deform, called pottery fan. The pottery fan is assembled into the outer cavity of the utensil, which is called the outer fan. After the outer fan is made, a thin layer is evenly cut off from the clay mold used to turn the fan, and the inner surface of the utensil is made, which is called the inner fan, and the inscription of the copper sword is engraved on the inner fan. The inner and outer fan are combined, and the gap between the inner and outer fan is the place where the copper liquid remains, and the distance between the two is the thickness of the bronze sword.

The fourth step is pouring, and the molten copper is injected into the pottery. After the copper liquid solidifies, the inner and outer pottery fan is broken, and the cast copper sword is taken out. Only one bronze sword can be cast in a set of pottery fans, so it is impossible for two identical bronze swords to exist.

The fifth step is sanding and refurbishment. The freshly cast bronze sword has a rough surface and unclear ornamentation, and needs to be polished and repaired to become a delicate bronze sword.

Therefore, even a coppersmith cannot forge a fine bronze sword without great skill.

The reason why Ye Dong knew these things was when he went to the Northern Sword House, and Yu Linling told him.

"Uncle, do you accept copper ore?" Ye Dong took out the copper ore in his arms, stepped forward, and asked in a dumb voice.

Dahan kept moving his hands, and he didn't want to pay much attention to Ye Dong, a strangely dressed person.

However, when he inadvertently saw the copper ore in Ye Dong's hand, his face changed, and he looked surprised and delighted.

"Young man, where did you get this red bronze stone?" Dahan hurriedly stopped what he was doing and asked Ye Dong eagerly.

There's a play!

Seeing the big man like this, Ye Dong knew that the copper ore he was holding in his hand was not simple, and it was an extraordinary product.

"Uncle, you don't care where I got it from, you just need to tell me if you can take it or not. Ye Dongdao.

"Take, of course. Dahan hurriedly pulled Ye Dong inside and lowered his voice.

"Little brother, do you still have this red copper stone? If so, I am willing to buy it at a high price and help you keep it secret. ”

Secrecy?

Ye Dong was a little puzzled, although he was dressed like this, looking suspicious, but it was just to hide his identity.

And looking at the appearance of this big man, he is much more nervous than Ye Dongke.

But that's not the point, the point is that Dahan agrees to the acquisition, then the next step is to negotiate the price.

"Uncle, how much do you bid for this piece of red copper?" Ye Dong asked.

Dahan stretched out his hands.

"Ten cents?" Ye Dong wondered.

That's too low, isn't it?

"Ten taels of gold. Dahan's words surprised Ye Dong.

Almost suspecting that he had misheard, he made a confirmation, and the big man nodded, repeating it again, indicating that he had heard correctly.

A small piece of red copper, I'm afraid it's not even five taels, but it's worth ten taels of gold.

What is the origin of this red copper stone, you must know that in the stone cave behind the waterfall in Lingshan, there are countless such copper ores, and they are everywhere.

In this way, wouldn't Ye Dong be a big deal.

Despite this, Ye Dong behaved calmly, the more sober he was, and he couldn't be carried away by joy.

At the same time, while seeing the value of business opportunities, Ye Dong felt a sense of crisis in his heart, and money has been worrying about people since ancient times.

Although Ye Dong is not afraid of those with bad intentions, but as the saying goes, it is easy to dodge the open gun and difficult to defend against the hidden arrow, and if you are not afraid of the thief stealing, you are afraid of the thief.

"Okay, I did this deal, how much do you want?" Ye Dong didn't bargain with Dahan, in this bronze town, it is estimated that he knows the goods, and he is generous, it is difficult to find a second person who bids higher than him.

Because, Ye Dong had also asked other coppersmiths before, but they all ignored Ye Dongai.

In fact, this is because the red copper stone in Ye Dong's hand is not an ordinary copper mine, so many coppersmiths have never seen it at all, so they naturally don't know what effect this red copper stone has for them.

"Ten pieces. The big man replied, "Do you have so many?"

"No problem. Ye Dong smiled, and directly took out nine red copper stones from his arms.

The big man was dumbfounded, almost dropping his jaw, he really didn't expect that such a rare red copper stone, this mysterious person in front of him, would take out ten pieces at once.

You know, that's all he's had!
